Sparkle Tastic!

Folksy Friday Features!

Firstly, I would like to to show you some of the gorgeous stones that have come out of our stone tumbler, found on the beach in Cyprus and tumbled to a gorgeous finish, over various cycles.

This gorgeous stone was muddy brown, but after all the polishing cycles has brought out stunning chocolate browns and caramels, with druzy caves of twinkling crystals, and would you believe it, its Jasper!

And this beautiful highly polished quartz was a chalky white and very dull stone, but look how it shines now, isn't nature amazing!

Mind you, both these stone threw our stone polisher into a fit, its only used to our smaller pebble finds, and decided to spill the contents of the barrel all over the workstation, and silted up the motor; we had to purchase a new one, so have turned out to be very expensive finds in the end.  LOL!

Onwards to FF Features!
